For a very long time now, I've been on the hunt for a distribution that really put a lot of effort into their KDE4 implementation. This has been a frustrating search, full of broken installations, incredibly slow performance, and so many visual artifacts they made my eyes explode. Since KDE 4.3 is nearing release, I had to pick up this quest in order to take a look at where 4.3 stands - and I found a home in the KDE version of Fedora 11. Read on for a look as to where KDE 4.3 currently stands.

Amazing you didn't try Mandriva .. Conectiva had it once .. and ever since they bought it (and Helio began working on Mandriva's KDE) they inherited the best KDE implementation/integration I've ever seen ..
